Zombie Mud Run

PORT ANGELES — The Pirate Zombie Mud Run is back, a family-friendly obstacle course that challenges speed, strength and strategy — all while being chased by the undead. The race will be held May 17.

Participants will launch in teams of four to eight every few minutes on a 2-mile course weaving through campus and the forest. Grab a flag belt at the start and guard it with your life — zombies will be stationed throughout the route, trying to steal it.

Make it to the finish line with your flag, and you’ll be awarded a survivor’s medal. Get “infected”? Swing by the first aid tent for a zombie antidote to reclaim your humanity and cross the finish line.

Prices are $40/$15/$75.
